Re: HD 50-135mm f/2,8 arriving soon!

OK, this sounds very promising. As long as... it doesn't result in a (much) bigger lens.

The improved 16-50 lens kept the same diameter but increased length 150mm or 18%. The weight increased from 562 to 712 gms. An increase of 27%.

I can handle such an increase with the new 50-135mm. Whatever happens it has to stay within a reasonable APS-C size, otherwise I agree with you and you might as well go FF.

It should be glorious.

And soon.
